Our philosophy in the vineyards tends towards the natural rather than the scientific. 
We aim to create wines that reflect the beautiful place from which they come and the particular year’s vintage conditions. For this reason, we try to use less chemical fertilizers, fewer pesticides and to irrigate as little as possible. We hope to achieve natural, well-balanced vineyards that ultimately yield better quality wines. Only grapes grown on Keermont Vineyards are used in the production of our wine.

Keermont Vineyards is blessed with some very special and unique vineyard sites. The farm is situated high up in the picturesque Blaauwklippen Valley, otherwise known as Paradyskloof (Paradise Valley). The Blaauwklippen River, which bisects the farm, is also the boundary between the Helderberg and the Stellenbosch Mountain Range. This means that some of the vineyards are on the warmer north-facing Helderberg slopes and others on the cooler west-facing Stellenbosch range. Due to the steepness of the terrain, the altitude climbs 200m within the 1.7km length of the farm and the vineyards are planted between 250m and 400m above sea level. Thus the vines planted over these different terrains ultimately produce wines with good complexity and a variety of flavours. In addition, just over the Helderberg mountains, False Bay and the Indian Ocean lie just 12.5km from the farm, which also contributes to our local climate.
